Logistics ERP for United States

Logistics companies in the United States operate under Department of Transportation regulations that govern carrier safety, driver qualifications, and hours of service. The FMCSA requires motor carriers to maintain operating authority (MC numbers), file BOC-3 process agent designations, and comply with minimum insurance requirements that vary by commodity type. The Electronic Logging Device (ELD) mandate requires most commercial motor vehicles to use certified devices to record hours of service, replacing paper logbooks. Compliance with HOS rules including the 11-hour driving limit, 14-hour on-duty window, and 30-minute break requirements is monitored through ELD data.

Freight brokerage operations require separate broker authority and a $75,000 surety bond or trust fund agreement. Brokers must maintain transaction records for three years showing the charges collected from shippers and the amounts paid to carriers. The transparency requirements under the Broker Transparency provisions of the FMCSA require brokers to provide carriers with transaction records upon request within 48 hours.

Customs brokerage for international shipments involves filing entry documentation with CBP (Customs and Border Protection), calculating duties using the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, managing free trade agreement qualification for USMCA shipments, and complying with security programs like C-TPAT. Foreign Trade Zone operations require separate inventory tracking and reporting to CBP. The ISF (Importer Security Filing) requires 10+2 data elements to be filed at least 24 hours before ocean vessel loading at the foreign port.

Yukti provides logistics companies with transportation management that integrates with ELD providers for real-time HOS compliance monitoring. The dispatch module optimizes load assignments based on driver availability, HOS remaining time, equipment location, and customer delivery requirements. Freight brokerage operations track margins per load with carrier settlement and shipper invoicing tied to the same transaction record. Customs brokerage modules handle entry filing, duty calculation with HTS code management, and USMCA certificate of origin preparation. The warehouse management system supports 3PL operations with client-specific billing rules, activity-based costing, and value-added service tracking. Fleet maintenance management uses DVIR (Driver Vehicle Inspection Report) data to schedule preventive maintenance.
